We study complex-analytic properties of the augmented Teichmuller spaces ATS introduced by Lipman Bers. These spaces are obtained by adding to the classical Teichmuller space TS the points corresponding to nodal Riemann surfaces. Unlike TS,…
We provide an account of the construction of the moduli stack of elliptic curves as an analytic orbifold. While intimately linked to Thurston's point of view on the subject (discrete groups acting properly and effectively on differentiable…
The well-rounded retract for $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ is defined as the set of flat tori of unit volume and dimension $n$ whose systoles generate a finite-index subgroup in homology. This set forms an equivariant spine of minimal…
We find a remarkably simple relationship between the following two models of the tangent space to the Universal Teichm\"uller Space: (1) The real-analytic model consisting of Zygmund class vector fields on the unit circle; (2) The…
The purpose of these notes is to give an introduction to Deligne-Mumford stacks and their moduli spaces, with emphasis on the moduli problem for curves. The paper has 4 sections. In section 1 we discuss the general problem of constructing a…
In [10] it was shown that there is a mapping class group-equivariant deformation retraction of the Teichm\"uller space of a closed surface onto a CW complex with dimension equal to the virtual cohomological dimension of the mapping class…
We start by describing how ideal triangulations on a surface degenerate under pinching of a multicurve. We use this process to construct a homomorphism from the Ptolemy groupoid of a surface to that of a pinched surface which is natural…
The aim of the present paper is to provide a new aspect of the $p$-adic Teichm\"{u}ller theory established by S. Mochizuki. We study the symplectic geometry of the $p$-adic formal stacks $\widehat{\mathcal{M}}_{g, \mathbb{Z}_p}$ (= the…
Let S be an infinite-dimensional manifold of all symplectic, or hyperkahler, structures on a compact manifold M, and $Diff_0$ the connected component of its diffeomorphism group. The quotient $S/\Diff_0$ is called the Teichmuller space of…
For $s >\frac{3}{2}$, the group of Sobolev class s diffeomorphisms of the circle is a smooth manifold modeled on the space of Sobolev class s sections of the tangent bundle of the circle. It is a topological group in the sense that…
In this article we use techniques from tropical and logarithmic geometry to construct a non-Archimedean analogue of Teichm\"uller space $\overline{\mathcal{T}}_g$ whose points are pairs consisting of a stable projective curve over a…
The main topic is the development of a Fredholm theory in a new class of spaces called M-polyfolds. In the subsequent Volume II the theory will be generalized to an even larger class of spaces called polyfolds, which can also incorporate…
We study the class of holomorphic and isometric submersions between finite-type Teichm\"uller spaces. We prove that, with potential exceptions coming from low-genus phenomena, any such map is a forgetful map $\mathcal{T}_{g,n} \rightarrow…
The Teichm\"{u}ller curve is the fiber space over Teichm\"{u}ller space of closed Riemann surfaces, where the fiber over a point in Teichm\"{u}ller space is the underlying surface. We derive formulas for sectional curvatures on the…
We show the map $\sigma : T_g \to C_g$ sending a compact hyperbolic surface $X$ to a random simple closed geodesic on $X$ determines a proper embedding of Teichm\"uller space into the space of geodesic currents. The proof depends on a…
We study compact hyperbolic surface laminations. These are a generalization of closed hyperbolic surfaces which appear to be more suited to the study of Teichm\"uller theory than arbitrary non-compact surfaces. We show that the…
This work is divide in two cases. In the first case, we consider a spin manifold $M$ as the set of fixed points of an $S^{1}$-action on a spin manifold $X$, and in the second case we consider the spin manifold $M$ as the set of fixed points…
This article is a contribution to the understanding of the geometry of the twistor space of a symplectic manifold. We consider the bundle $Z$ with fibre the Siegel domain Sp(2n,R)/U(n) existing over any given symplectic 2n-manifold M. Then,…
There are several Teichm\"uller spaces associated to a surface of infinite topological type, after the choice of a particular basepoint (a complex or a hyperbolic structure on the surface). These spaces include the quasiconformal…
In this paper we study the Goldman bracket between geodesic length functions both on a Riemann surface $\Sigma_{g,s,0}$ of genus $g$ with $s=1,2$ holes and on a Riemann sphere $\Sigma_{0,1,n}$ with one hole and $n$ orbifold points of order…
